INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Spray Tip

Precision spray tip for controlled liquid distribution in industrial rinsing systems.

Component Specifications

Definition
A spray tip is a critical component of a rinsing nozzle array that atomizes and directs liquid flow with specific spray patterns, droplet sizes, and coverage areas. It converts pressurized liquid into fine mist or targeted streams for cleaning, coating, or cooling applications in industrial machinery.
Working Principle
The spray tip operates on fluid dynamics principles where pressurized liquid passes through an orifice, creating turbulence that breaks the liquid into droplets. The internal geometry (such as swirl chambers or angled channels) controls spray angle, pattern (flat fan, full cone, hollow cone), and droplet size distribution.
Materials
Stainless steel (AISI 316L), PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), ceramic (alumina), or hardened alloys for abrasion resistance. Material selection depends on chemical compatibility, temperature range (-20°C to 150°C), and pressure requirements (2-10 bar).
Technical Parameters
  • Flow Rate 0.5-5.0 L/min at 3 bar
  • Spray Angle 15-80 degrees
  • Connection Type BSP/NPT threaded
  • Orifice Diameter 0.5-2.0 mm
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 150°C
  • Operating Pressure 1-15 bar
Standards
ISO 9001, DIN EN 12284

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should spray tips be replaced in industrial applications?

Replacement intervals depend on operating conditions: typically 3-6 months for continuous use with abrasive fluids, or when spray pattern distortion exceeds 10% deviation from specification.

Can spray tips be cleaned or must they be replaced when clogged?

Most industrial spray tips are designed for cleaning using ultrasonic cleaners or chemical solvents, but replacement is recommended if orifice damage or wear exceeds manufacturer tolerances.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
